Scaring Myself

I always thought I hated math. What I am discovering is that what I hated was how my Mother taught it to me and that I actually rather enjoy it. In fact, besides enjoying it, I find it fascinating. This scares me.

Also, check out "A Problem Text in Advanced Calculus" (http://www.mth.pdx.edu/~erdman/PTAC/PTAClicensepage.html), which is a pretty awesome calculus book released under a creative commons license. Be sure to read the front matter though -- the book is organized a bit differently than you've probably seen.
